Good morning!!!!

.......................................
After reading viewing pics pretty sure I am going to put that mower on my wish list well before Christmas.

Well, both Agri-Supply and Woodmaxx only order (import) a certain number at a time.
Agri-Supply ordered 16 or 17 with a few week wait. Woodmaxx went from the middle of July to late August before the next lot came, which is why I have a Caroni rather then a Woodmaxx.
So, put those delays in to your equations...
As you can see, mine is set at full offset to the right. The Woodmaxx has a hydraulic side shift, but it doesn't appear to go any further than the Caroni. Caroni also has a hydraulic side shift kit, but I doubt I need to have hydraulics with it's $800 price tag (plus you'd have to assemble the kit).

Mowing done for the day.
Wife had a good Dr appnt. 2006 she was diagnosed with endometrial cancer so I guess this makes 10 year cancer free Anniversary. Celebrate out with a lobster dinner tonight. Life is good. I am abundantly blessed.

a lobster dinner is a wonderful way to celebrate, great news David.

small package came today with my five pack of eclipse glasses. Little cardboard things with inserts, ISO and CE certified, allegedly. I'll give away the extras to friends who forgot to get one. Maybe someone will have an eclipse party

great news David!

Had some sauteed salmon fillets tonight. Quite yummy, but prefer our local redfish or flounder.

good evening all. 76F this morning, overcast, calm wind again. High was 89F, few breaks appeared about noon, intermittent drizzle this afternoon, and rain forecast for tonight. Have rain in the forecast for 6 of the next 10 days, with below normal temps (low 90's). Today was putter day, mostly on bicycle. Changed out batteries on front light, readjusted front derailleur, readjusted front fender, and reattached the front fender mud flap, part of the front fender broke off during Kansas ride.

Excellent dinner, made all the better by two friends (mom and daughter Kelly) who walked in the door shortly after our arrival. As they were alone we invited them to join us. The daughter is a 12 year breast cancer survivor so the celebratory mood was well understood. Think it's a big world? Kelly grew up about 2 miles from my wife and went to school with wife's younger brother who now lives here in Hawaii. The girls never met until about 4 years ago here in Hawaii, they live about 5 miles from us. Always pleasant to spend an hour or two with them.

Good thing I quit mowing when I did, over 1.3 inches rain since then.

Lawn mowing on tap.

Have a great day all, be safe.

66 heading to 91.

Great news about your wife, David. It is a small world.

PJ, great sunrise...thanks for sharing the pic.

CWB, sounds like the fence clown's wife is doing the right thing getting away from him.

Bush hogged the frisbee field yesterday while still enough dew to hold the dust down.

RS, sounds like we were spraying together yesterday, although several hundred miles apart. I put the sprayer on the 3 point and mixed 50 gallons...sprayed the gravel driveway and then 7 food plots, getting them ready for fall plantings. Two of my summer plots failed, so will replant for fall, and some of the clover plots are years old, and need replanting. Ended with about 10 gallons left, so drained into empty 2.5 gallon glystar plus jugs I've saved for this purpose (the ones marked do not reuse). Will use this mix for the backpack sprayer.

Poured first cup of coffee. 60° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 83° with chance of thunderstorms in afternoon. Not much planned for today. Trip to Sam's Club. Friend from Canada stopped by for a visit yesterday. Good afternoon visit.
David, Good news on wifes test.
Good Morning All.
